6 Go to hell (2/2)
She saw a woman standing nearby, whose hair was wrapped in a bun with a metal chopstick.
She yanked the sharp hairpin out of the woman's hair, who cried out in surprise.
With a flash, she was behind the woman. The sharp hairpin was pointed at the woman's neck. The woman stopped breathing as she felt her hairpin near her neck.
Yi Lan's body hurt but she held on firmly. ”If you don't let me go, I'll kill her.” Her voice was cold and filled with killing intent.
The people there were suffocated by the killing intent Yi Lan had released. The pale faced woman from earlier almost staggered back in shock.
The metal hairpin in Yi Lan's hand dug into the fair skin of woman, making it bleed. The woman trembled as she saw the blood flowing through her wound. Tears started running from her eyes. Yi Lan, on seeing the woman cry, sighed inwardly. ”Don't worry, I won't kill you. This is only so that they will let me go.” Yi Lan whispered. She disliked weepy women.
The woman's breath finally calmed down and she gave an imperceptible nod.
No one had noticed this exchange.
The white robbed man, recovered quickly from the hit of killing intent and was going to free the woman, when a cold wind rushed into the room.
The woman in Yi Lan's arms was snatched away, along with the hairpin. Yi Lan blinked, confused about what had happened.
The others were happy to see the person who had rescued the woman. ”Crown Prince!” squealed a girl in delight, a blush adorning her face.
The woman in the prince's arms also trembled in delight, when she saw her rescuer. She had never thought that such a handsome man would come to her rescue. She felt that the cut on her neck was worth it.
Yi Lan's thoughts were the exact opposite. Shr glared at the man who had jusy entered. He was what you call an *ikemen, handsome, smart and powerful. His short dark hair hung smoothly over his forehead, his eyebrows perfectly shaped and eyes a dreamy green.
Yi Lan only hmphed in annoyance. She had a strong dislike of men like him. The only exception was her big brother and Kira.
The handsome man glanced at the woman in his arms. ”Are you alright?” His voice was deep and low, making every girl in the room shiver except of course Yi Lan.
The woman blushed at the Prince's gaze and said in a low voice ”Yes.”
The Crown Prince smiled and said ”Then would you mind accompanying me to dinner tonight?”
The woman almost fainted with delight. ”Yes, I would love to.”
The Crown Prince gracefully set her down while saying ”Then I'll look forward to tonight.”
Almost all of the girls in the room gritted their teeth in anger and jealousy, especially the pale faced woman.
The Crown Prince then looked at Yi Lan who was standing there with an annoyed look on her face. A hint of surprise flashed in his eyes before he walked towards her.
”Miss Meng, may I ask what you were doing to this beautiful lady?” His tone was casual, but there was a hint of darkness in it.
Yi Lan felt a chill. She could tell that this man was powerful. More than her. That speed was inhuman. She knew she couldn't afford to waste time here.
She took a step forward.
And another, till she was a few centimetres away from the Crown Prince.
”Go. To. Hell.” she gritted out. Yi Lan had already reached her limit. Her eyes glinted and then she did something that no one expected. With a swing of her leg, she kicked the Crown Prince straight between his legs.
The said man, who hadn't expected her to pull such a move, groaned out in pain.
The people there were shocked and before anyone could act, Yi Lan ran out of the room.
”Your Highness!” screamed a few girls.
The Crown Prince, gritted his teeth as pain burst from his crotch.
”Guards, find her and bring her to me.” The Crown Prince's tone was so dark that the white robed man couldn't help but light a candle in his mind for the young miss of Yi Clan.
On the other hand, the Crown Prince had a scary smile on his face. That woman had the guts to hit him and run away!? 'Just you wait, Yi Meng.'
